The Nigeria Environmental Society, NES, Abeokuta chapter, has called on residents of the state to properly manage their plastic waste to prevent plastic pollution and create a safer, healthier, and cleaner environment.

The Chairman of the society, Badmus Jamiu, made the call on Thursday in a statement to commemorate the 2025 World Environment Day.

This year’s celebration is themed, “Putting an End to Plastic Pollution.”

According to Jamiu, although plastic is incredibly beneficial to humankind and provides a living for millions of people, it poses a serious threat to the environment.

He maintained that plastic stays longer and fails to degrade, thereby causing countless health and environmental problems.

Jamiu said, “Aside from these, plastic pollution also constitutes a health risk, particularly to aquatic life, which will invariably come back to society.

“So, there is a need for residents of the state to put an end to plastic pollution by properly managing their plastic waste and latching on to different government initiatives such as the Blue Box Programme championed by the Ogun State government.”

In order to protect the environment from potential threats, he suggested that residents should separate plastics from their regular waste so that they can be sold to nearby recyclers.

“The environment is where we all live, and we depend on it for our survival, so it needs to be treated with the utmost care and respect,” Jamiu said, wishing the state’s citizens a trouble-free World Environment Day celebration.
